A researcher designed an experiment to demonstrate the process of soil erosion. He placed a bar of soap in a flat dish and left it under a slow running tap so that water falls directly on the soap bar. After two hours, the researcher noticed that the part of the soap on which water was falling had been washed away and a hole had formed in the bar. The researcher concludes that the rate of soil erosion can be calculated by using the soap bar model and can be applied to real-life scenarios.

No, because the flow of tap water is not comparable to the flow of water in natural conditions.

b)

Yes, because it shows the erosion of the top layer of a surface by water.
